MiM vs MSc Economics and Strategy for Business from Imperial College

Hi!

I am aiming to break into the consulting scene in London and am an offer holder for the MSc Economics and Strategy for Business programme. I applied for it over the MiM course as I wanted more quantitative modules in the course and felt it would be equally suitable for consulting. However I am second guessing myself as it is an uncommon course and not as popular as the MiM. Will it have the same standing as the MiM would in the eyes of recruiters or would I be at a disadvantage? 

I have a graduate degree in accounting and a couple of years experience in corporate finance if it helps.
